What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: In view of network pharmacology and molecular docking technology, to explore the targets as well as effect mechanism of the Huanglian Jiangtang formula (including Methods: TCMSP and Batman database (DB) were used to retrieve the chemical components and action targets of drugs; GeneCards, OMIM, TTD, DrugBank, and other databases were applied to screen the disease targets. We used the UniProt DB to annotate the targets before building the drug-compound-target network with Cytoscape 3.9.1. We also exploited the String DB to construct the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. In addition, the targets for the treatment of type II diabetes were searched in the DrugBank, OMIM, GeneCards, and TTD database; then, we utilized Venn to intersect the key targets for the therapy of type II diabetes and active ingredient targets to obtain common targets. Furthermore, we exploited the common targets using GO and KEGG enrichment analysis method. The common targets and core components were analyzed by molecular docking using the AutoDock software. Results: A total of 61 effective components of this compound were screened out; drugs and type II diabetes have 278 common targets; the PPI network screened core target proteins such as CDKN1A, CDK2, and E2F1 with the help of molecular docking technology; the three main compounds including quercetin, kaempferol, and gamma-aminobutyric acid were obtained. Besides, the key target proteins had excellent binding properties with the main components. The signal pathways of six compound interventions in type II diabetes were mostly related to cancer, cocaine addiction, aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, glycine, serine, threonine metabolism, platinum drug resistance, and other pathways, according to the KEGG enrichment analysis method. Conclusion: In the treatment of diabetes, the Huanglian Jiangtang formula has sorts of properties especially in the aspects of composition, target, and pathway. Its molecular target and mechanism of action may be related to pathways in cancer, cocaine addiction, aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis, glycine, serine, threonine metabolism, platinum drug resistance, and other pathways. This conclusion can provide theoretical support and science for further research.
